Kidney paired donation pilot program participants: match run schedule to expand to two per week

In response to member requests, we will increase the number of match runs from once to twice a week, beginning June 2. Here’s the new schedule.

Monday match run – response deadline Wednesday at 5 p.m. ET

Thursday match run – response deadline Monday at 5 p.m. ET*

*If everyone in an exchange submits their responses by Monday at 7 a.m., any donors and candidates in exchanges that are terminated can be included in the Monday morning run.

The expanded match run schedule will continue through the end of August, and then we will evaluate how the change affects the number of match offers, success rate, number of transplants scheduled and transplants completed.
